David's poem in another post reminded me that in 2002 I was asked to write an article about my Camino. I decided to write it in verse. It is rather irreverant and not very lyrical but I found it on a website here:

Quote:

"When the lights went out I prayed for morning
But I couldn’t sleep because of the snoring
And the bare-arsed man? I tried to ignore him
el Camino de Santiago."

Depends on the arse, of course....
Um.....

Love it Sil: this encompasses all the good things I remember about my first Camino.
It's a bit like your first love, isn´t it?
Obsessed? Probably ... but what a GRAND obsession!
